Hiking Bambarakanda to Horton Plains |
We leave Colombo by hired van at around 7AM and able to reach Bambarakanda rest at around 1PM. After having lunch we started to climb. We go alone the road heading to top of Bambarakanda falls. The road goes through the Udaweriya tea state. Before getting dark we were able to reach near the devil’s staircase. On a side of a road in a level surface we were able to put up our two tents. It’s a beautiful full moon poya day. We can clearly see the bright stars all over the sky.
In and around Deniyaya (Hathmale falls, Pitadeniya, Pathanoya falls and scenic Buluthota hills) |
This was one of those trips where you pick a random week end and head some where you have never been to, with pretty much no planing in advance!
This time it was me and Prabath. We decided that Deniyaya would be a nice area to explore, so two of us boarded my old but faithful jeep at 2 a.m. on a Saturday and started driving towards Deniyaya via Rathnapura, Rakwana and Suriyakanda.
